Al-Muwatta Hadith<br />

Hadith 29.33<br />

Divorce of Men who Divorce for Compensation<br />

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Rubayyi bint Muawwidh ibn Afra came with her paternal uncle to Abdullah ibn<br />

Umar and told him that she had divorced her husband for a compensation in the time of Uthman ibn Affan, and he heard about<br />

it and did not disapprove. Abdullah ibn Umar said, "Her idda is the idda of a divorced woman."<br />

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Said ibn al-Musayyab and Sulayman ibn Yasar and Ibn Shihab all said<br />

that a woman who divorced for a compensation had the same idda as a divorced woman - three periods.<br />

Malik said that a woman who ransomed herself could not return to her husband except by a new marriage. If someone<br />

married her and then separated from her before he had intercourse with her, there was no idda against her from the recent<br />

marriage, and she rested on her first idda.<br />

Malik said, "That is the best that I have heard on the matter."<br />

Malik said, "If, when a woman offers to compensate her husband, he divorces her straightaway, then that compensation is<br />

confirmed for him. If he makes no response, and then at a later date, does divorce her, he is not entitled to that<br />

compensation."<br />

Fiqh-us-Sunnah<br />

Fiqh 3.48<br />

That zakah of rikaz and ma'din is obligatory is shown by a statement attributed to Abu Hurairah: "The Prophet, upon whom be<br />

peace, said: 'There is no compensation for one killed or wounded by an animal, falling in a well, or because of working in<br />

mines; but, one-fifth (khums) is compulsory on rikaz.' " Ibn al-Mundhir confesses that he does not know anyone who<br />

contradicted this hadith except al-Hasan, who differentiates between what exists in the land of war and the Islamic land. The<br />

latter holds that if rikaz is found in the land of war, one-fifth (khums) is due, but if it is found in the Islamic land, it will be<br />

subject to the regular zakah.<br />

Explaining it, Ibn al-Qayyim says that there are two interpretations of this statement:<br />

The first interpretation is that whenever someone hires someone else to dig a mine for him and then he falls into it and is<br />

killed, there is no compensation for him. This view is supported by the Prophet's saying: "There is no compensation for one<br />

who falls into a well or who is killed by an animal--(al-bi'r jubar, wa al-'ajma' jubar)."<br />

The second interpretation is that there is no zakah on minerals. This view is supported by the Prophet's saying: "... but onefifth<br />

is compuslory on treasure--(wa fi az-zakah al-khums)." Thus, he differentiated between mineral (ma'din) and treasure<br />

(rikaz). He made zakah on rikaz compulsory because it is a wealth obtained without any cost or effort. He exempted minerals<br />

(ma'din) from zakah because they require both cost and effort for their mining.<br />
